The use of medroxyprogesterone acetate for the treatment of sexually inappropriate behaviour in patients with dementia.

Stacy Anderson Light1, Suzanne Holroyd.   

Abstract

Sexually inappropriate behaviour in a patient with dementia can be a problem for caregivers. Little research has been done concerning treatment for this behavioural disorder. The hormone medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) is a known, but infrequently used, treatment option. We describe a series of 5 cases in which MPA was used successfully to control inappropriate sexual behaviours in men with dementia.
